Monkey Fursonas: Do They Exist?
Does anyone here have a chimpanzee or primate fursona? Are they common?
I ask because furs are animals that have been humanized but...wouldn't humanizing a chimpanzee or something similar just be making a human?
Do primate furs count as furs?
Why yes, this is the stupidest thing you've read all week!

Help creating a "Fursona"
my friends are trying to get me to create a fursona. Since I have never been a furry or really been around them that often I dont really get the whole alter-ego kinda deal related with them.
my question is: what is the easiest way to create a fursona? like first pick a favourite animal or do I figure out what kind of personality I want to portray?
this will be helpful because it seems like a lot of fun and a really creative thing to do.

Playing arround with redditgraphs. Its statistics time!
I've been playing with RedditGraphs and I liked some of the tools, specially the 'daily trends' graph.
Found it curious since it shows when this sub and others are more active.
The bot watches the reddits 24/7 so the posting habits of the bot should be consistent with the overall reddit activity.
The huge spike in activity arround ~10:30 EST is nothing unexpected... but europe seems to work in two shifts, Early afternoon and early night.
A couple of posts outside relevant reddits ... maybe I forgot to login with the non-bot account (;-_-)
Edit: A typo in the title. FML.

Artists to commish for a ref sheet?
Yes, I know this has been asked before, but the posts are rather old, and everyone seems to have either stopped accepting commissions altogether or they're very unclear on their information.
I don't have any art of my character, and I figure it's about time I remedy this. So, I'd like to know some people who are currently accepting commissions. I don't care about cost, so if you know of any people who are in need of an extra buck, send 'em my way.
Thanks in advance for any help, and stay furry. <3

Would anyone be interested in $5 commissions?
Thinking about starting commissions to practice digital work. Nothing super fancy, examples are here and also here. EDIT- fixed links
Opinions anyone? Would probably only take on a few at a time, maybe 5?

Streaming Tonight!
Free art! Hooray! 10 minute sketches, with volunteers randomly chosen. More details here, including a shameless plug for commissions. I'll edit this post and my journal when I've started the stream, which'll be a liiittle earlier than actual game time.
Stream starts in about 1 hour and 30 minutes, and will be hosted through join.me (hence the... not posting the link yet. I'd have to entertain you for over an hour!)
Taking Names! Drawing Starts In About 30 Minutes!

Growing out of the fandom
I feel indifferent about being a furry anymore. I used to love calling myself one but anymore I just find drama with it. The oversexualized world that is the furry fandom is also starting to get old. I can't go most places involving furries without some hints of sexual stuff. Even irl when I go to my furry parties, the host tells everyone this is a clean party but several always end up doing things, sometimes in public. Even when I was into the sexual stuff, I found it to be way to over the top, my imagination only gets so far before reality tells me that it is impossible in every way. I can't look at a picture of someone with a dick bigger then their body, rationality kicks in and just turns me off.
I feel like this is partially because of my major, psychology. Then I get to thinking. I joined the fandom because they are accepting of everyone, however, just because you are accepted does not mean your ideas are always right. I have met more pedophiles, drama whores, art whores, rude people, egocentric arses, and depressed love hungry jerks in the fandom then I have anywhere else. I am just getting so sick off all the BS. I love to have my fursona, I love to get art of him (not with other people) and I am him only, I have no other interest besides seeing others (within reasonable proportions) fursonas.
Am I the only one here who has kinda felt this way?
